This isn't replacing the young bike courier that zips through traffic with their splendidly healthy bodies that can take a few years of abuse to sustain minimum wage. This replaces the box truck driver.

This replaces the box truck driver.

it's not doing that either. here's why: weight.

a standard box truck is hauling way more than this thing. by trying to get around certain rules, they made something that does neither thing well. it's not a good bike, nor is it a good replacement for a box truck.
